Follow this procedure to change the IP address on your Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Audio Server and its corresponding gateway applications.

+

+

===== To Change the IP Address of a Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Audio Server System =====

+

+

+

# Stop all the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace services, including the Gateway SIM, on the MCS servers.

+

# From the Gateway Configuration, delete the units for the Gateway SIM on each MCS server.

+

# Use the ''' net ''' command to change the primary IP address on the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace 8100 series. See the [[Cisco Unified MeetingPlace, Release 6.x -- Configuring the Audio Server System#Configuring the LAN Parameters for the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace 8100 Series|Configuring the LAN Parameters for the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace 8100 Series]] for complete information about using the ''' net ''' command.

+

# Change the IP addresses on any blades in the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace 8100 series using the ''' blade ''' command. See the [[Cisco Unified MeetingPlace, Release 6.x -- About Configuring the Blades#About Configuring the Blades|About Configuring the Blades]] for complete information about using the ''' blade ''' command.

+

# Restart the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace 8100 series server.

+

# Change the IP addresses on the NICs on the MCS servers.

+

#: '''Note: ''' This is a Windows function. Search for help in Windows on configuring TCP/IP for static addressing for more information.

#: '''Note: ''' If you use host names (instead of IP addresses), these are automatically changed in the DNS table so you do not need to change anything in the other Cisco Unified MeetingPlace applications.

Host name -The name that appears as the command line prompt for the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace CLI.

Note: To help with network maintenance issues, you may want to make this name identical to the external DNS name. This external DNS name is how the network refers to the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace 8100 series. However, configuring this host name in Cisco Unified MeetingPlace does not automatically configure the DNS entry in your DNS server. In addition, when attempting to access other servers from Cisco Unified MeetingPlace, the other server IP address must be used because Cisco Unified MeetingPlace is not configured to support DNS internally.

Host description -The name of the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Audio Server as seen in MeetingTime and Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Web Conferencing. It is helpful to use "MeetingPlace" in this field because it can be different from the TCP/IP name.

Site name -An arbitrary name for the location of the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Audio Server.

The Media Access Control (MAC) address of the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Audio Server. It corresponds to the MAC hardware address that uniquely identifies each node of a network. During setup, the getether command produced this value.

NTP server

This IP address designates the Network Time Protocol (NTP) server on your LAN. It allows Cisco Unified MeetingPlace to synchronize its clock with the network time server.

Note: You must restart the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace system before some of the changes made by the net command can take affect. If you need to restart the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace system, the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace system will say so. If you need to restart the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace system to test your changes, restart the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace system, wait five minutes, and then ping the IP address you entered with the net command.

Examples

Example: Changing the host and site names (option 3 from the net command menu):

Enter the number that applies to the region where your Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Audio Server is located. Another menu appears with options for that region. The following is an example of the screen that appears:
